I finished my GT5 setup yesterday!

G27 racing wheel/full clutch/6 speed shift box

I was looking online, and found some amazing mounting solutions...
I even considered constructing my own...

However, I ended up putting a 42" screen about 4 feet from the driver, a table to mount the wheel,
and a lower end table for the shifter.

The results are fantastic, and I'm working on golding all the licence tests!

Amazing game...

Clutching through the gears of an F40... Totally worth the price of admission!

Not just the seat, I have this....but I will have to build a shifter mount because I can't find it anywhere. Right now I can only use the paddles.

Yep, only regret not getting the G25/27 kit.

When you get your rig we should make some M5 runs at 'the Ring'...... my PSN screen name is 'MiamiPhill'
